This post had earlier included excerpts from an article by Sister Mary Mebane, a Roman Catholic nun who practices Reiki in California. I had ppublished some of her writings, in which she described the compatibility of Reiki and Christian practice, after the Catholic Bishops issued a report instructing Cahtolic institutions to stop teaching Reiki.
On April 4, she asked me to remove the article from Beliefnet. She did not say whether it was related to the Bishops instruction.
This link to another essay from Sister Mebane appears to be still working.
